Passenger revenue for U.S. airlines in July fell 21% from the year-earlier month, the ninth consecutive month in which it has declined from the prior year, said the Air Transport Association trade group.U.S. carriers have been suffering from the recession, which is snuffing demand from leisure passengers and business travelers alike, causing fares to drop as carriers attempt to stimulate demand, and leading the airlines to reduce the number of seats they fly.Four percent fewer passengers traveled on U.S. carriers in July, while the average price to fly one mile fell 18%, the ATA said. In June, the average price to fly a mile declined by 21% year-over year. While the modest improvement in demand from June to July normally would be a cause for cautious optimism, 'the fact is that the number of air travelers continues to fall despite double-digit declines in fares,' said ATA chief executive James May.The trade group estimates the number of passengers who will fly globally on U.S. airlines over the Labor Day holiday period this year will fall about 3.5% to 16 million passengers from 17 million in 2008. The ATA defines the period this year as Sept. 2 to Sept. 9.Also reflecting the weak global economy is the continued decline in cargo traffic. U.S. airlines' cargo traffic, as measured in tons of freight flown a mile, declined 15% in June from the year-earlier month, the ATA said. The decline was 11% domestically and 18% on overseas routes, the 11th consecutive month of declining volumes. July cargo data isn't yet available.Susan Carey
